Local people doing big things at community events is indeed newsworthy! Congratulations to the Herrera family!

These are very talented young people. Their music is great except for the contemporary Norteño. Wish you guys would play the Norteño of the 40s and 50s. This contemporary stuff is just ... well ... too over-powering. It gives me a headache. But I love your Huasteco.
